Book excerpt: MATCHPOINT DEFENSE - Kick it up a Notch is a new book for duplicate players. MATCHPOINT DEFENSE teaches techniques that go beyond the basics that are used on every hand. Many of the book's forty-one hands are directly from club-level tournaments, so the reader gets to see that the techniques work and that good defense keeps moving daily scores upward.Excellent defense is much more important in duplicate than in Team-of-Four, Swiss Team, or Rubber Bridge. That's why MATCHPOINT DEFENSE is 100% about matchpoint defense. In matchpoint, every extra trick you get is golden. It doesn't matter whether you limit declarer's overtricks, set her contract, or cause an extra undertrick. GAME ON!MATCHPOINT DEFENSE explores topics like knowing which cards partner still has later in the hand, defensive carding to win that elusive last trick, and imagining declarer's plan so you can thwart it.
